About This Activity
Our Butterfly classes are designed for novice sailors who are too old to fit comfortably in an Opti and kids of any age who are ready to train on a larger and more complicated boat. Novice sailors will learn the basics of sailing, sailboat maneuvering and right of way, and, when ready, how to recover from a tip-over, sail upwind to the windward mark, and complete controlled tacks and jibes under a variety of wind conditions. Intermediate sailors will continue to build on their sailing skills, with special emphasis on techniques that safely maximize speed in a more sophisticated boat. All students are invited to march with us in Frankfort's Fourth of July parade.
